Ramona Amersfoort

Level:

This is the very first dress that I made using a sewing pattern. Also the very first time that I used a cotton fabric. I find the instructions in the pattern book easy to follow and fun to read. I couldn’t wait to start making my dress, but the way it was described got me even more excited. So this pattern can even be used for a beginner level, like myself.

How did you add your personal style to the dress?:

I got inspired by a photo on pinterest where the dress was finished with piping cord. I chose for an ocher color to match the fabric. Since the print of the fabric is quite busy I decided to finish the color as well to distinguish it more. It was also the first time I used piping cord and it can definiately use improvement, but I’m really happy that I added it.

What do you think of the result?

When I saw this dress on pinterest I fell in love with it immediately. I ordered the pattern and fabric and started to work on it rightaway. I’m super happy with the result! I will for sure make another version using a different fabric. Next time I will also fold the Front Panel differently, so that the buttons sit on the opposite side…..minor flaw 😉
